Edward Hopper

(Couple Near Poplars)
1906

Illustration of two elegantly dressed figures, possibly from the early 20th century, standing side by side with a backdrop of tall, slender trees. The person on the left wears a blue hat and a dark coat, while the person on the right is in a long dress with a white apron or front, and both are depicted in profile. The scene is stylized with bold outlines and flat areas of color, evoking a sense of simplicity and grace.
